Course details

The programme aims to provide teachers and science graduates with specialised knowledge in the field of life sciences, by addressing not only the knowledge base, but also the necessary experimental skills required. Without sacrificing the necessary breadth and depth of the multi-disciplinary nature of the life sciences, you are offered a highly personalised roadmap in which the most recent scientific developments are taught, and social and bioethical issues are discussed.

As you receive training in the basic concepts, conduct experiments and projects under experienced and highly qualified scientists, you will be given the opportunity to interact and explore vast new realms in the life sciences.

Specialisations are:

Clean Energy Physics (previously known as Applied Physics)
Applied Plant Sciences
Chemistry
Environmental Science
Zoological Sciences

There are two options within this programme. You are required to either:

a. Complete 8 courses plus a dissertation, or
